Coal flotation is a very complex process that is characterized by a large variation in physical and chemical properties of treated material, i.e. coal and mineral matter. It is the most efficient separation method for coal particles within a narrow size …

Coal flotation is characterized by the chemical and petro-graphical composition of coal and its rank. In addition, size and sp . gr. of coal particles, pulp density, rate and uniformity of feed, conditioning, type of reagents, pH, presence of clay and type of flotation machines are the other variables which influence the coal flotation.

flotation rate, particle size recovery, air flow, pulp density, etc.) As a result, it is difficult to study the effects of any single factor in isolation, and compensation effects within the system can keep process changes from producing the expected effects (Klimpel, 1995). This makes it

The U.S. Bureau of Mines has developed a computer model to describe a flotation process. Coal data from conventional flotation has been converted to a simple, two-parameter kinetic model developed by Reuter and van Deventer (-l,2J3. Each set of coal data was represented by two constants, a and P, and an average flotation rate.
